The City Council and the street
Railroad.

The court house boys can't under
stand why the Main Street railroad
line cannot .be extended. 1t wonld
be very convenient, 'hey say, and it
does look awkward to stop the track
lust where il is. What harm can it do
to extend it to the court house! If
street cars are nuisance and not
necessary, why permit the building of
any?
The laws should be so made as to
coniine such corporations strictly to
the letter and spirit of the law. The
city council should not await the
building of railroad before they
make the laws applying TO their case
For instance: The property holders on
the line of the Main street road were
assessed to pay the cost Of the paved
street from the sidewalk to the track,
on either side, the city paying for that
norton the track occupies. SuDsc-
quently the city required tie company
to pay the cost of said paving, which
they refused to pay, and suit has
been instituted against the company.
Laws are so slipshod in many in
stances that men or corporations that
have money delay paying until the law
compels them or frees them from pay
ment: hence so much dissatisfaction
against corporations or combined
capital. Were the laws iron-clad be-
fore such investments and improve
ments were made, there would be no
trouble.
The Dallas daily herald. [volume] (Dallas, Tex.) 1873-1887, 1887-01-19

The city council gave little sign at
a recent meeting by instructing in
quiry to be made concerning tho en-
forcement of the sidewalk ordinances.
If they will follow this up and compel
the enforcement Dallas will have a
few good sidewalks, of which il is
sadly in need.
Dallas dirt continues to be in great
demand. Transactions occur da ",
and trades are on the tapis all III
time. Inquiries from eastern and
northern capitalists are numerou.
and large transactions are in contem-
plation.
There have been real estate transfers
since the LIST of December that aggre
gate over 81 100000.

The Two Mayors.

As the HERALD said yesterday, there has
been no collision between Acting Mayor
Brown and Mayor John Henry Brown, con-
corning temporarily restraining the Dallas
Street Railway company extending their
track on Main street. Mayor Brown, not
acting, gave his opinion without inyestigat-
ing the matter, that road could extend their
line, but he in nowise ntcrfered With Act
ing Mayor Brown in the discharge of his
duty.
The injunction suit this afternoon, now
; in progress before Judge Aldredge, will set
tie the matter so far as Connor's case is
concerned.

GROWTH OF A BIG Book. When Web.
ster's Unabridged was first published in
one volume, it was comparatively
small book. Some years after an adj
dition was made of 1900 Pictorial illus
trations, A Table Of Synonyms, and an
Appendix of New Words that had come
into use. I Afew years later came an en-
tirely new revised edition Of larger size,
with 5000 Pictorial illustrations, then,
after interval Of "a few years, a Biograph-
ical Dictionary of nearly 1000 Names
and a Supplement of nearly 5000 New
Words were added, and there has come
new and most valuable addition, A
Gazetteer Of the World, Of over $4,000
Titles. The work is now not only the
Dictionary, par excellence, but a Bio
graphical Dictionary, a Gazetteer ofthe
World, and great many other good
things in its many valuable Tables.

Nine People Killed By cno Flash.


NASHVILLE, July ia most re-
markable occurrence followed a me-
gro funeral at Mt Pleasant, about
sixty miles south ofNashvillc, TO day,
nine negroes being killed by single
stroke Of lightging. A large party
followed the remains of Harriet Ter
ry to the grave, singing and shouting.
The usual ceremonies at the grave
were performed, and just as the final
prayer had been said, a dark, omin-
GUS cloud came up from the east.
The party had scarcely left the grave,
when one of the most severe thunder
and rain storms ever known TO that
section burst on them. All imme-
diately made break for the various
trees scattered around the graveyard.
Scarcely had those who were after
ward killed reached the shelter of an
immense oak, when terrific thun-
der-cloud burst and the tree was
struck. The whole party of nine
tumbled down together, aud died in
stantly. Their names were William
Burch, pastor of the G. NJ. L. church,
and Hattie, his wife; John Hannah,
minister engaged in missionary
work; Manuel Orr, Methodist
preacher; Tom Rodgers, Hester Ter
ny, mother of the girl who was bur-
led, and her two daughters, Eliza and
Rose, and Sebra Guthrie. Three
others, who was sheltered under a
linn tree, saw the party killed, but
were themselves uninjurcd. It was
noticed that the part of each body
nearest the tree was SCARED and their
clothes torn. The most intense ex-
element prevailed there all the even
ing, and the wailing and mourning
of the frightened negroes were SIM
ply heart-rending.

miserable. To-day she is a new

was before she was taken sick two
years ago. She can eat anything, and
she to-day thinks S. S. s. the greatest

BIRD SUGGESTIONS.
Popular Beliefs Prevailing Among the Un-

Popular Beliefs Prevailing Among the Un-
educated OF All Countries.
In France the handsome white owl,
with its plumage. is accepted every
where as a forerunner of death. As if
that were not enough to draw upon it
the animadversion of all. this bird is
often accused of sacrilege, for in Prov
idence and Languedoc it is charged
with drinking the oil of the church
lamps. In the south Of Germany the
crow bespeaks good luck, butin France
anything but that If seen in the morn
ing. The same with the magpie-ill
luck if it flies on your left; II, on tho
contrary, on the right, you may be as
sured that the day will be fortunate
one. In England the influence of the
appearance of this saucy bird upon
current events is governed by the
numbers in which he appears, and is
thus summed up;
One for sorrow,
Two for mirth;
Three for wedding;
Four for birth.
Among the negroes of the Southern
States tine moaning dove means TO save
mems soul. To kill one of these
doves is a sign of death, but more fire.
quently the death of child. A buzz
zard or crow upon the housetop is
believed by these same people to be an
invariable sign of death OF disaster; q
visit at the door from a rooster, the
approaching visit of friend; the notes
of the screeching owl, or "shivering"
owl, are bad omen of many interpre-
tations, while, if the common owl boots
on your right good luck will follow,
but bad luck should he take up his po-
sition on your left side and boot there
from. The reputation of all night
birds. great or small, is no better; but
Southern Imagination has discovered a
remedy for all their spells. 1t consists
of throwing a pinch of salt into the fire
as soon as the sound is heard
If chaflinch perchcs ON your win

the wren which aided Prometheus in
stealing the sacred fire of knowledge
from beneath Jove's throne in Heaven.
Accordingly, he who kills wren will
have his home destroyed. If you have
money in your pocket when you hear
the cuckoo for the first time, it is n good
omen, and YOU will have your pockets
we'll lined during the year; If, on the
contrary, you have no money. Guilt
